Hmmm, before I paste this in, I'm wondering a little. shared_ptr_132.hpp is different from shared_ptr.hpp in version 1.32 in that it uses a null deleter. Its not clear to me that this change doesn't nullify this feature. This feature is key to being able to recover 1.32 pointers and convert them to the new setup.
Not sure I understand correctly here. If you are referring to my using checked_deleter, all I did was qualify the existing detail::checked_deleter as boost::checked_deleter. If this was supposed to be a null deleter, I would check the code in CVS. For reference, the Borland workarounds consisted of removing 2 "using namespace boost;" statements inside namespace boost_132, and then adding an explicit boost:: qualifier on the front of the couple of names that were being dragged in from the global boost namespace. I did not change any other functionality. It is possible you were expecting name-lookup to resolve more symbols in the boost namespace, but I only found these 2 or 3. AlisdairM
